Making the Word Come Alive
“Remain in Me…let My words remain in you…” I can trace my life each week–my feelings, my behaviors, my thoughts–simply by the time I spend in God’s word and in His presence. More tired, snippy, impatient? Yep, I skimped on time with Him. Sorry to people who dealt with me last week! Quick to assumeContinue reading “Making the Word Come Alive”
Forget Me Not
When you feel remembered–when someone acknowledges and leans in, it is so powerful. You feel seen and heard and chosen. There’s nothing more deflating than having to introduce yourself to a person for the 49th time, and they have no clue who you are. It feels empty. That’s why I love to connect with people–weContinue reading “Forget Me Not”

Layers
It seems that everytime I post something I am learning or convicted with, the week following gives another chance to learn even more. The last post was about need–and I have been driven to even more need this week. Physically I have been in need from the way I feel on hormones. Emotionally IContinue reading “Layers”
The Ongoing Need For The Gospel
The Ongoing Need For The Gospel. I am willing to beat this drum until my death. This is our life–take it, know it, treasure it. We do not outgrow the gospel. This is a great article to remind us again.
Long awaited blooms

All or nothing–There is no in-between.
I am in a Precepts study in the second part of the book of Matthew this Spring. There are no more haunting words in the Bible to me than the words of Jesus that talk about us denying Him before men. We live in such a lazily safe culture for meager faith. It costs usContinue reading “All or nothing–There is no in-between.”
